Update: I hadn't realized the original developer still has this on their website. I searched Google before but didn't find any place to download, that's why I posted the mirror. But later on I stumbled upon it. The developer's site is http://exigocs.com you can also download TinyShark Downloader from there.
It's no longer available on Play Store, but I downloaded it shortly after I got Android. I then discovered soon after it was removed from Play Store, so it has since lived on my sdcard with TitaniumBackup, since I did a lot of ROM flashing.
Despite not being updated for over a year, it works great on Jelly Bean , and is still is one of the best Grooveshark apps for android I've ever tried, with playlists, offline cache option, and more.
With offline cache, you can effectively use this as a mobile Grooveshark downloader. It dumps the songs into sdcard/tinyshark_songs/ where they have id3 tags, but are just named a bunch of numbers. You could cache them 1 at a time, then go there and rename the file to whatever you want, or you could just copy to your PC and use software to use id3 to name the files.
Here is the original description:
Listen to Grooveshark on your Android device for FREE.
- Search the Grooveshark database
- Import Grooveshark playlists
- Play individual songs or an entire playlist
- Cache songs for offline playback
Does NOT require Adobe Flash to play music (Settings -> Use Flash Player). TinyShark now does not need Flash for music playback, but it is still an option for those that find it works better.
Starting with version 3.0 a lot has changed under the hood. A lot of fixes are being made so check for updates often. If you are having problems try reinstalling and create a new shortcut in your launcher. If you are still having issues please email details and send any crash reports you can.
Thanks to everyone that's been emailing!
To download songs try Tinyshark Downloader also available in the market.
Taken from:
http://www.bestappsmarket.com/p/app?appId=8894&title=tinyshark
It really works much better with "Use Flash Player" unchecked. [You have to do that to enable Offline Cache]
The app id is com.exigo.tiny

thanks for sharing! I recently used the groove mobile but it wasn't good at all.
Downloads as a zip but the post suggests an APK. Shall i just flash it?
Edit: my bad downloaded via phone but showed as zip. Working fine via PC.
Thanks for sharing!
Not connecting
I am experiencing some problems during the last month with this amazing app. It doesn't connect, when i try to connect i can see the 'connecting...' with the yellow light, but in a few seconds becomes again 'Disconnected' with the red light. Is it just me or this app is not working now?
I am having the same issue as well.
Try using tinytunes app from play store.
It's from the same developer but not related to grooveshark
It's pretty good.
As I am a new user I am not able to paste the link.

tinyShark 3.1.7
I tried Dood's music and it has a very bad performance (for me),
Searching in google i found the last version of Tinyshark (3.1.7), now it connects, but it doesnt play any song
SOLVED: Settings > Playback Controller > HTML5 instead of FLASH

Tinyshark needs a widget and this has to be useable and offline caching needs some work

If you guys are having issues with 3.1.5 you need to first uninstall 3.1.5 and then update to 3.1.7 found on their website http://exigocs.com/. If you still have problems download and install tiny shark downloader.

I would consider this app *warez* for the fact it is used to steal music off a site that is know for being borderline legal anyways. There is a reason Google removed it from Play.
Just sayin.
Also, buy the music you like. Support your artists

Sadly, by buying music you're supporting the music industry (RIAA). By going to concerts you're supporting the artists.

Not the artists I listen to. I buy direct from them or their independent label.
If your music is controlled by the RIAA then you need to stop listening to USA Top 40 and go out and find real music.
Either way is better then supporting this app.
But back to why I brought this up, if XDA allows this app then why not all the other MP3 downloaders in the play Store?
Mod maybe answer?

How to setup squid Proxy for tinyshark for streaming?
Somehow my T-Mobile connection seems to be blocking the tinyshark connection. Whenever I use the T-Mo data connection, my tinyshark would immediately show disconnected.
I managed to setup a squid server so that it now shows "connected" ( squid log says TCP_HIT/200 1495 GET http://grooveshark.com/crossdomain.xml - NONE/- text/xml )
But the songs are not streaming...
Anyone has experience setting up squid for tinyshark that could share some insight?
Thanks!

Cast To UPnP/DLNA for GMusic is a new app that let you stream your cloud Google Music uploaded by yourself and from the All Access subscription (including Radio) to any UPnP / DLNA device:
XBMC
DLNA TVs
PCs (WMP, foobar2000, ...)
WDTV Live
Xbox 360 (including when playing games)
PS3 (playback must be started from the PS3)
Sonos
Android (with BubbleUPnP)
various hifi gear from Denon, Pioneer, Onkyo
...many more devices!
Google Play listing
Youtube video streaming to Xbox 360 and XBMC
UPnP /DLNA devices appear as Chromecast devices that can be selected in the Google Play Music app for playback and control.
You heard it right: you use the Google Play Music app to play to mentionned devices.
If it doesn't work with your UPnP / DLNA device please send me a log file (to bubblesoftproducts at gmail.com), following these instructions:
IMPORTANT: in Google Play Music, make sure no device is connected (disconnect it if necessary with the cast icon). Then Swipe the Google Music Play app from the recent apps list (to force it to reload when it will be launched next)
launch Cast To UPnP/DLNA For GMusic
enable "logging to file" in Menu > About
IMPORTANT: Exit the app using menu > Exit
restart Cast To UPnP/DLNA For GMusic
start the Google Play Music app, select the problematic device, play something and trigger the problem
exit Cast To UPnP/DLNA For GMusic (menu > Exit)
connect your phone to your PC or MAC and mail me the file /Android/data/com.bubblesoft.android.upnpcast/log.txt found on the SD Card
OMG if this works, it will be awesome. Just installing now.

is ps3 supported?
Seems to timeout an awful lot. Every few songs I have to restart the app because GMusic can't see the target. I suspect it occurs when the tablet drops off the WiFi.
just tried this with nexus 7 2013 and the Cast icon didn't show up when you click Start to launch. Kill all running process and restarted but still the same.

You need some UPnP / DLNA devices to play to on your network for the icon to show up. What device did you expect to see ?

Anything really .. xmbc, PS3, google tv, plex, windows media center .. did you test with the current version of Google play music? (mine is listed as v5.1.1109K.772337)
EDIT:
Reinstalling xmbc, then restart seems to do the trick. Will have to test the rest again later.

PS3: not remotelly controllable so does not qualify
Google TV: it won't show up magically if you do not install an UPnP AV renderer app on it
plex: probably like xbmc, require to enable it for remote control
WMC: If it is like WMP, probably need to enable it for remote control
Thanks for creating and making available your app and for fixing the 401 Unauthorised error so quickly. Prior to your app I'd been using an Airplay application, but your app is more what I had been looking for.
There's still another issue that causes Google Music to occasionally stop detecting my DLNA device. It is usually resolved by making your app active again, and does not require restarting of either apps, and typically occurs only between songs.

Try v1.0.3 which should be available on Google Play soon and let me know if you still have the problem.
Thanks for this! Any chance of getting a similar app for other Google Cast apps (Netflix, YouTube)?
Wow easy setup and works flawlessly with my xbox and samsung tv as well. The gui the xbox provides is much better than samsung's allshare play gui however. Thanks for this! Buying the full version now!
v1.0.4 will be shortly available on Google Play.
- fixed app not working anymore on Android 4.0.x
- fixed some UPnP/DLNA devices crashing Google Play Music (some LG TV in particular)
- fixed rare crash when pressing the play/pause button in Google Play Music
- fixed volume issues on some problematic devices (Yamaha)
- fixed track advance possibly not working on some Onkyo devices
- updated Help
Nice app! This gives my Raspberry Pi _the_ feature I was missing! (Too bad my Chromecast is already on its way - well, one can't have too many toys, right?)
There's however one issue I came across: I bought the unlocker on my phone. However it seems I cannot get the software unlocked on my other phone and on my tablet. On all those devices (except my "1st" phone says that I should buy the unlocker. But even if I press the "buy" button, Google tells me that I already got that item (and does not even give me the option to pay again).
Could you, dear folks at Bubblesoft, implement an "unlock checker" routine?
Thanks!

On your other devices than you phone, make sure to download the app in Google Play using the Google Account that you used for the purchase (in Google Play : Settings > Account). You can revert the account once you've downloaded the app.
oooo, you are an arm twister. i have the bubble server paid for but this app has a seemless way of playing back things from the app itself.
You know what would really be cool if you could? if you have your bubble server be able to handle playbacks from other apps as well and play to the upnp capable players. of course also maybe including this seemless playback in bubble server would be cool too, but yeah.
Is it possible to create an app for movies or YouTube or other apps, too?

volume issue
App works great, a few hiccups here and there but not too often.
One bug I've noticed though is the volume selected doesn't seem to "hold" between songs. I'll turn it down to about 50% and when the next song begins it'll jump back up to 100% while the slider still remains at 50%.
Happens on both my Nexus 4 and 7 (2013) casting to my 360.

Believe it or not but this is a nasty WTF Xbox360 bug that resets volume to 100% between songs (this is the hardware reseting vol to 100%: from the app's POV, volume hasn't changed).
The app workarounds this bug, but it looks like it doesn't work for you. The workaround uses a non-scientific determined waiting time value between 2 commands that seems to work on most Xbox. I will increase it at little hoping that it will fix it on your Xbox.
Have had a few issues using this app but works great 90% of the time.
I'm currently experiencing a drop in connection between songs or when I skip a track. This only happens when I play though my Panasonic VT30.
This is a real bizarre question but is there a way to configure the Note Edge so that if I remotely open an App like Google Play Music over an existing currently playing app such as Pandora or Beyond Pod, and make it play over the app that was currently open? And for that matter, can I switch back to the previous app remotely and have it play over Google Play Music? Here's the thing, when my phone is not nearby me and I want to switch apps and have them play over the previous playing app, is there anyway to do this?
Google has started testing streaming apps! This allows you to use an app without ever actually downloading the app. The app is streamed through Google search. If your search turns up an app in the results there will be an option to stream the app. This cloud based technology will allow you to experience the app as if it were fully installed on your device.
This could be huge for anyone who owns a phone with little to no memory. This could also mean that phones of the future may ship with even less memory built in. Could you imagine a future where google charges you for a box where you house your streaming apps? Hopefully this is not anything Google is considering. It seems to be a pretty awesome feature.It will work as long as you are on wifi. Head to Google and check it out!
Hi everyone!
I wanted to check in and see if anyone knows that it may be possible to get Play Music on our speaker sporting watches at least with All Access streaming as now we have all the tools to do so including wifi and speaker support and would love to be able to stop having to sync specific albums to the storage all the time to use it. This would be a pretty popular app and I would definitely pay for one like this.
Anyone else think they would enjoy a mod or app like this to play music. I think spotify can do this on the watch but I don't have a subscription to spotify and wanna stick with my google play music. :highfive:
I am currently on a Huawei Watch.
So, a quick off the cuff maybe may be in order...
Here is why...
First, those of us without speakers may not miss out on this either what with full Bluetooth support already here. ...
Second, we can already install apps using adb. We can also install those appsm to specific folders. This is easier with watches thatmplkug in through USB, but all wear watches support adb so installing the Google software is possible. We can probably install play music directly.
Third, though our watches do not all have native direct wifi support, many do, and I am guessing it is going to be supported by the 1.4 OS. However, even if it is not, if you install an app in your /system folder, it can access wifi directly as it needs.
Fourth, and here is where the good news ends... Google play music is not a stand alone app. It relies on Google play services, and they are to say the least, complicated. We have them on the watch to communicate to the phone, but not the full version. So, I have no idea how well the app will install, let alone work. Likewise, Google only allows developers to access certain libraries and play music has not released any (to my knowledge) for Wear other than the typical hooks for controlling your music.
So, all of this adds up to a maybe...
